On Scooters, Passengers, and Coffee. A common saying among guys here in the US regarding scooters is. Scooters are like fat chicks, they're a lot of fun to ride, but you don't want anyone to see you on them.". Why do we have this negative stigma regarding scooters in the US? Before you look up the date and start comparing it. no one. If you lived in Italy, chances are, you know a lot of people. While. My girlfriend wants a scooter. I think she would have a blast.

I'm late typing this one up. I've been too busy riding. :). If you just bought a bike, and you want to start riding it, do yourself a favor:. Take the MSF course first. True, everyone there probably had their loved ones rubbing their butt in baby oil afterwards, but it was the most rewarding thing I've done in a long time. All in all, the class was great, and I left with valuable knowledge that I could use to improve my riding. I'll be there for the next one, so I can try it on my own bike.

So I got hurt a couple of weeks ago while, get this. rolling the bike out of the shop! With the engine off! I hopped on, rolled down the ramp, leaned right, and my buddy yells "Hey Carlos! That caused me to turn my head further to the right, and put pressure on the bars while going 1 mph and still leaned over. That makes three. No. four drops. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Scraping Pegs: Two up
http://gptuners.blogspot.com/2009/07/two-up.html
I've been wanting to ride two up for a while now. At first, I wasn't comfortable enough on the bike. I spent all my time getting more comfortable, and wanted to wait before I took a chance on putting Tristen in danger. It's one thing to put yourself at risk, another to risk the life of someone you love. And then we'll travel. :). Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). To Be Fitted By a Trained Mechanic.

Scraping Pegs: Track Day Preparations
http://gptuners.blogspot.com/2010/04/track-day-preparations.html
Finally, I had to prep the bike. Headlight is gone, taillights, and turn signals are taped up. The drain plug, fill plug, oil filter, and miscellaneous brackets have been RTV'd. Passenger peg removed, tool kit removed. Old School front number plate made. :). Bar-end mirrors removed. I did not replace them with bar-end weights. Chain cleaned and lubed. Wheel weights were duct taped over. I convinced a co-worker to head up with me, which resulted in a ride, and a trailer. Wow, insane. Good for you!

One of the most overlooked pieces of motorcycle gear is the back protector. There are many out there, they all look cool, but some ARE better than others. I have recently acquired what I consider to be the best back protector on the market. After all sorts of research* I KNEW I was going to get a Forcefield back protector. Twins Separated at Birth? Forcefield actually makes the Joe Rocket Speedmaster. Why Joe Rocket does not scream this from the rooftops, I don't know. Especially since the MSRP i...Http:...

Finally did the Name Justice! I lived up to the name. Now I need to re-evaluate my ability. Sometimes this comes in the form of a coach, sometimes it's a book. The best people got help somewhere along the way. I picked up Lee Parks' Total Control a few months ago. I immediately straightened the bike, and tried to figured out what the heck just happened. Upon closer inspection, I actually dragged my toe. Interesting. I'm going to have to learn to hang off. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Scraping Pegs: I Suck at Blogging.
http://gptuners.blogspot.com/2010/04/i-suck-at-blogging.html
I Suck at Blogging. Just a heads up. I suck at blogging. I haven't written anything in here in a long time. I think I'm going to start it up again. I've decided that this is going to be a weekly blog- one where I hope to provide an entertaining and informative insight on my progression as a motorcyclist. My first Track day.
